ENCYCLOPEDIC CARTOONS

"The project’s idea is base on the encyclopaedia, knowledge pool of the 18th century put together in a multi volume book project. The encyclopaedia aims making world’s phenomena understandable and put them into a larger context beyond religious explanations, which usually had been the first and only world interpretations in the middle ages provided by the Catholic Church. By this encyclopaedia is the first try in modern time shaping the world.

In our time knowledge is provided by scientists and changes everyday. Today it would be impossible to bring together the different concepts in order to understand the world from a unique position. Nevertheless the encyclopaedia is still a distinct concept, which more than in the old days present a utopia to us.

ENCYCLOPEDIC CARTOONS provides for each letter of the alphabet a more or less abstract word. Loosely connected to the word is a single film running from a few seconds to 4 minutes. There are 26 films, for each letter one film.

This are the words, representing the alphabet for a sample of related films, please consult my ‘youtube’ site (www.youtube.com/enigmaticbook)."
